Recycled tin can

I remember my first tin can recycled project was when I was in second standard. My dad was posted in Shillong then. I used to cover tin cans of different shapes and sizes with colored paper and decorate them. I remember displaying them on a shelf in our store room and inviting my friends to see it ....a la exhibition :) Today I am posting one of my recycled tin can projects that I did last week, but didn't get the time to post it.

The original can....
Another very interesting recycled element of this project is the flower. The petals are made with dried seeds of pumpkin. The centre part is a cone.
Hope you all like my project. Please do let me know :)
Happy crafting!!
